Mr. Football's BCS doomsday scenario

Love the Biblical capitalization.

I think Rylan Reed would just grab the BCS by its haunches and hump it into submission.

LOL. This seems not particularly unlikely. I can imagine the hell that will be raised if the Big 10 gets in over the SEC or Big 12 champion and then gets bent over a barrel by the team that wasn’t left out.
But I haven’t seen Penn St. that much and they might be legit. I feel like holding the Pryor Wells combo down is fairly impressive. But then, they couldn’t score like USC did on that squad.
Anyone else think the best 3 teams are Texas, Florida, and USC?
Obviously not dedfischer.

Nice Dodgeball reference Trips. I spit my halloween candy out as I read that line while hearing the voice of Rip Torn in my head.

There are only 3 good SEC teams this yr (Alabama, Florida, Georgia) maybe 4 if you toss in LSU. The Big 12 #5 (Mizzu) could give any one of these teams a run for its $. I think Big 12 should definitely get the nod this yr.

I’d think Florida makes it. At present they are just a hair behind us in the computers and will have just beaten “Number 1” Alabama. Texas will have just beaten a team not even in the top ten. Human voters have already shown their propensity towards memory loss (Coaches poll) and will likely put Florida number 2 as well.

We’ll see. Texas needs to take care of business in a big way and let the chips fall where they may. That’s certainly assuming Tech ascends to the place where there is no more weeping and gnashing of teeth.

We would get the nod IMO because we will have played a tougher schedule and our loss is a much better loss than Florida’s.We lost to an undefeated team ranked #6 a the time, on the road, on the last play of the game. They lost to an unranked Ole Miss team at home. It’s an easy call if you ask me.

I agree that’s how it should be, but my faith in the polls to make such an informed and rational decision is…weak.

Touche’

I honestly think Texas might have trouble handling Cody in the middle of the line. I at least know Tech’s guys are smart enough to tried and tackle him before he kills our best chance at winning.

like 4th said, florida would have just beaten alabama. they go. texas gets to shut the fuck up because they lost a game late in the year instead of at the beginning.

Sorry, I made the mistake of actually applying reason and logic to my take. I forgot momentarily that the BCS is a beauty pageant where the narrative is more important than actual on the field events.

By the way, will someone please explain to me why Alabama is such a clear cut number 1? Honestly take a look at their resume to date and get back to me. I’d love to see that spin. Call me crazy but I’m not enamored with a team just because they have a 0 in the loss column.

Hey…Bama tore up Tulane this year. That was a quality win….oh wait. Sorry….um…nevermind. Lets just let it go.

How about if OU goes undefeated along with Texas, Penn State loses one, and Florida beats Ala in the SECCG? Then you could potentially have 7 one-loss teams and no major undefeateds.
How would any BCS apologizers explain how the system worked then? You would have 7 teams with a legit claim at the title game and 5 left out in the cold. That would be fun.

What if Texas Tech’s first team finishes #1 and their second team finishes #2?

That’s simple. The bcs championship game will be played as if its tech’s spring game.

I’m not drinking the Kool-Aid on Alabama either. They have played one decent team and thats Georgia. The next competition thats worth a damn will be Florida in the sec title game. LSU has been blasted by any competition they have seen. The SEC isn’t what it was the past couple of yrs and the media and pollsters need to get off their nuts.

HJ, that would be so awesome.

HJ:
You’re killing me.

When Leach leaves Tech, the only guy good enough to replace him is Ditka. Oops, my mistake, Leach is Ditka.

Ditka ate Leach and Crabtree is “The One” not Neo.

Mini Ditka 56
Texas Tech 6

Damn, this is only going to get worse. I can tell.

Tech will play the Ko-Dan Armada for all of Rylos while Florida and Texas look up at the night sky in stunned disbelief.

Tech vs. Flash Gordon and the Hawkmen.

Doperbo actually played Lance Guest’s little brother in Last Starfighter.

Kansas, what if there was a hurricane, and it was named Hurricane Ditka?

Hurricane Ditka 214
Tech 2

Hurricane Ditka probablly ran his 1st play from scrimmage out of the I from his own endzone, had his OL reach block, had his slowest backfield in the game, and Tech got the safety….. Hurricane Ditka wised up after that

Holding and Face paint have no effect on Hurricane Ditka

But what if Oklahoma State runs the table. We’ll know whether that is a possibility after Saturday….

amazing. I think Tech loses one, UT or OU go to the Big 12 CG by winning the 3-way tiebreaker because Tech will have the latest loss. South beats north. There are 3 good one loss teams from the south (you could, in theory, sub out OSU for Tech or OU).

What if none of them go to the NC? what do you do with 3, top 10 teams? This is a fairly likely scenario that will piss off someone in the big 12 South for sure.

That happened last year. You can ask Missouri how they felt.

Whether you’re an Orangeblood, Guns Up, Boomer Sooner or Boone’s Farm, I think it means everybody better root for Iowa Saturday.

Penn State is a joke and would finish 5th in the Big XII South. Not to mention Florida, Georgia, Alabama, USC and West Virginia are all, also, better than PSU. Just send PSU to the Rose Bowl to get their shit packed by USC.

Ah, well…who wants to live forever?

I’m hoping Penn St will get punished at some point for what has happened to tOSU in the last two BCS championship games.

Over at AtomicTeeth we put together a model to project probabilities of winning out and making the national championship game. Texas fans might find it interesting. You can make your own assumptions. The assumptions we started with have UT playing Penn State in the championship.
